| Obverse description | Head of a youthful female deity, identified as Leukippos or a local nymph, facing right, rendered in fine Classical style with flowing hair pulled back and secured, individual locks rendered with careful incision. The face displays delicate, idealized features characteristic of South Italian Greek coinage of the early fourth century BC. The neck is bare, and the portrait fills the flan with confident, high-relief modeling. The inscription NIKA appears in the field, likely identifying the figure as Nike or serving as the engraver's signature. |
